Answer:

d. beta did a better job of explaining the returns than standard deviation

Explanation:

Beta measures the systemic risk associated with the particular investment, it do not compute the total risk associated, which is more  logical.

Standard deviation computes the total risk associated.

Some risk is natural, like the risk of floods, natural calamities, earthquake, etc:

That risk shall not counted as for comparison as that is associated universally. Further, the risk associated with particular factors like bankruptcy of a company, or some legal case issue of a company are precisely described by beta coefficient.

Thus, beta provides better details about explaining the returns.

attashe74 [19]

<u>When the average product of labor is decreasing​, the marginal  product of labor is less than average product of the labor.</u>

Explanation:

whenever the marginal product of labor is greater than the average product of labor the average product of labor must be increasing.

Crystal Glass recently paid $3.60 as an annual dividend. Future dividends are projected at $3.80, $4.10, and $4.25 over the next
lora16 [44]

Answer:

$41.96

Explanation:

The first thing you need to do is to calculate terminal value at the end of time t = 3. Then the intrinsic value of the stock is sum of discounted cashflow from t =1 to t = 3 (cashflows at t = 3 includes dividend as well as terminal value).

Terminal value at t = 3 = Dividend in year 4/(Required rate of return - Dividend growth)

                                     = 4.25 x (1 + 3%)/(12.5% - 3%)

                                     = 46.08

Then value of the stock is calculated as below:

Stock intrinsic value = 3.8/(1 + 12.5%) + 4.1/(1 + 12.5%)^2 + (4.25 + 46.08)/(1 + 12.5%)^3

                                  = 41.96
